Sam Mullet, guilty of hate crimes in Amish beard-cutting attacks; 15 others guilty of related crimes | cleveland.com
I've been following the trial fairly closely, because it's an interesting peek into a rather insular community, and also because I was curious about the "hate crimes" charges.
I started out thinking this was preposterous and ended up thinking this might just be the best use of "hate crimes" laws I've ever seen.
Anyone else watching this case? Whaca think?
